OK.  The interfaces are in place, some are unimplemented, so it would
just be a matter of you using them, me implementing the one or two
parts that aren't there and my fixing any botches that I may have
designed into the api.

:         Webgear Wireless LAN    Messy stuff with memory maps
:         Xircom REM56G-100       Mutlifunction modem/ethernet and CIS stuff

Don't have one of these.  I have the 33.6 cem336 version.

:         Libretto 50CT Floppy    ?
:         Adaptec 1460            ?

Got both of these.

:         NE2000 Ethernet Card    ? CIS has "Telecom Device SuperSocket RE450T"

OK.  I'm mostly interested in the if_ray driver, since I have a couple
of these cards.  My hinting was mostly that you'll need to nmake minor
adjustments to if_ray when newcard hits the streets.  I'm still
working out the final details of them right now, but hope to do it in
a compatible way with oldcard.  both will have to coexist in the tree
for a while.
